However some of mine, and others fantasy comments have almost already been completely discredited. For Instance

Ok first, he lost cred when he said "They'll learn from the veteran Morency" but still, pretty bold for a beat writer. moving on

It usually takes recievers a year or two to gain Brady's trust. WR Deion Branch, often named Brady's favorite target of all time, never had a 1,000 yard season. Also Brady loves to spread the ball around, don't look for Moss to have many 100-yard games |
Even this was laughable at press time, because Moss is a home-run threat You know even the most disciplined QB would love to just throw a ball up and watch Moss come down with it.

This one is up there, I didn't think Brees would struggle so much out of the gate, but Meachem making them forget about possibly one of the Saints best receivers? I don't think so. Ok on to my so far plunders

3. Frank Gore will be a stud running back
4. Eli Manning won't be a good QB anytime soon |
Ok, so I'm not an expert, but hey, if you don't make bold predictions, you can't boast the ones that are right. As I told my dad

2. Even with the improved offense, the defense will still score more points in Minnesota(so far so good)
3. Petrino had this planned, he told Brohm to stay, and the Falcons would get the first pick, so they'd be re-united. Brohm gets a big pay-day, Petrino gets a pay-day, voila, two people are happy(ok so maybe this is far-fetched but look at it!) |
Thoughts on these? Perhaps share some of your own?
